I'm 44, I heard that menopause will damage the result of Mommy makeover due to the lack of hormones and the age. Is that true?

Menopause has variable manifestations, which may modify Mommy makeovers. Many women will experience the following: a) regrowth of breasts and/or ptosis (droopiness); b) accumulation of fat around the abdomen and hips. Depending on what combination of procedures you choose for your mommy makeover, you may require a little adjustment. Although we can't choose not to age, we can choose a healthy life style, dietary moderation, exercise and self-knowledge, i.e. whether or not to go on Hormone Replacement. Assemble your professional team, including Internal Medicine and Gynecology. Good luck.

The corrections made during a Mommy Makeover are permanent. However you will continue to age normally after the procedure. Just as you can still impact your results if you gain or lose weight, your results will be impacted with normal biological changes.

Hi there. Unfortunately, there's no sure way to predict how menopause
will affect you. Some women gain weight, others lose breast volume, and others
remain relatively unaffected. Though no surgery can stop the aging process,
procedures such as a mommy makeover can slow it down. Also, many doctors
provide hormone therapies and other treatments that help patients manage the
unwanted side effects of menopause. As long as you maintain a steady weight and
live healthily, your results should be quite long-lasting. Best of luck with
your decision.

Menopause has never been accused of making someone look better, but there is really no choice about it (other than hormones). Still, a result after a mommy makeover followed by menopause will be better than menopause without the surgery. We must choose to fix the things we can an accept those we cannot fix.

Dear riveral, the lack of hormones and the aging process ruins everything! Some of the most attractive women I know are in their 40s so you are in a great age. Moreover this is the right time for you to have the MM because the forties is a great age where you are still young enough to bounce back from surgery quickly so don't wait too long. If you think menopause will damage your MM results making it not worthwhile I'd say that it will damage you even more if you don't do the makeover. A lot of people think aging is all in your mind, I'm not so sure about that! What I know is that if you eat healthy and stay fit you will defeat the effects of aging wether or not you take hormonal replacements. I also know that bioidentical hormonal replacement does a lot for your skin, health and attitude. You're only 44, please don't give up
